What does it really take to build a successful life — not just financially, but spiritually, professionally, and personally?In this episode of The Kingdom Method, Jimmie Dale sits down with legendary speaker, author, entrepreneur, and longtime Zig Ziglar protégé Krish Dhanam for an unforgettable conversation about faith, leadership, perseverance, humility, and the true meaning of success.Krish’s story is the embodiment of the American Dream.After coming to the United States from India with roughly $9 to his name, Krish eventually encountered legendary motivational speaker Zig Ziglar — a meeting that would completely change the trajectory of his life.What started with sitting in the audience at a Zig Ziglar seminar eventually led Krish to take a major pay cut for the opportunity to work inside the Ziglar organization. He would go on to become Ziglar’s VP of Global Operations, travel the world alongside him, write with him, speak to audiences of thousands, and develop a relationship and mentorship that lasted for decades.But this conversation goes far beyond business success.Krish shares the lesson Zig Ziglar taught him about becoming a “10-year overnight success,” why failure is an event rather than an identity, how ego can destroy what success builds, why humility matters more as your influence grows, and why genuine success requires playing the long game.Jimmie and Krish also dive into leadership, entrepreneurship, customer service, company culture, resilience, marriage, mentorship, generosity, missions, the Christian faith, and what it means to use the gifts God has given you to serve others.Krish also shares how his journey eventually led him into ministry, taking the Gospel around the world and shifting his focus from simply achieving success to creating Kingdom impact.In this episode:• Krish Dhanam’s journey from India to the United States• Arriving in America with less than $10• The Zig Ziglar seminar that changed his life• Taking a $2,000/month pay cut to pursue an opportunity• Becoming Zig Ziglar’s VP of Global Operations• The “10-year overnight success” mentality• Why failure is an event — not a person• What entrepreneurs get wrong about success• Leadership, integrity and company culture• Why humility becomes more important as you succeed• Faith, purpose and using your God-given gifts• Krish’s transition from business success into ministry• Lessons from decades of speaking around the world• Why true success is bigger than money• Building a life that creates Kingdom impactWhether you’re an entrepreneur, business leader, salesperson, Christian, or simply someone trying to discover what success and purpose look like in your own life, this conversation is packed with wisdom you can apply immediately.The Kingdom Method is about building successful businesses, becoming better leaders, strengthening relationships, living out your faith, and using your influence to make a Kingdom impact.Subscribe for more conversations about faith, business, leadership, entrepreneurship, personal growth, and purpose.#KrishDhanam #ZigZiglar #TheKingdomMethod #Leadership #Entrepreneurship #Faith #ChristianBusiness #Success #PersonalDevelopment #BusinessLeadershipFollow us on facebook @kingdommethod Follow us on instagram @kingdommethodshowFollow us on Tiktok @Kingdommethodshow
